IMO the only safe place to keep money is in a mason jar buried on your land. the bad think is you can get interest that way

Seems like your subject line could be....Why I love the bank I use!!

They are on top of the situation and called you. Sounds like a good thing to me!

Ask your bank what is the maximum amount that can be withdrawn from your accounts without any photo id being presented. If you aren't happy with that withdrawal limit, then you ask them to change it for your accounts.

As an example, years ago I had my credit union add to all of my accounts that a password and/or photo id was required for all withdrawals. Password for withdrawals under $300. Photo Id for withdrawals over $300.
